What we love about this experience is how the guides, including the friendly and professional Juan, walk the fine line between making it accessible and keeping it thrilling. The route includes a mix of manageable sections for beginners and some real challenges for seasoned climbers. Plus, the 150-meter-long suspension bridge crossing a ravine is a standout feature — an exhilarating moment that makes the effort worthwhile.

But if you’re generally active, love scenic adventures, and crave a bit of challenge, this tour is a fantastic fit.

This experience suits travelers who enjoy outdoor adventures, are comfortable with heights, and want to see Alicante from a truly unique vantage point.

A Detailed Look at the Redovan Via Ferrata Experience

Location and Setting

Nestled in the Valencian Community, the Redovan Via Ferrata is Spain’s second-longest route in Alicante, offering a fantastic backdrop of rugged cliffs and lush landscapes. Starting point is at the Polideportivo Los Pasos sports complex in Redován, easily accessible with clear directions provided. The setting is perfect for those who appreciate combining outdoor physical activity with stunning scenery, and the route is designed to be both exciting and safe, guided by experienced professionals.

The Itinerary Breakdown

The tour starts at the K2 family section, which is ideal for beginners or those who prefer a less intense challenge. This section begins with a climb on iron staples driven into the rock, a straightforward task for most, even with limited climbing experience. It then progresses to crossing a 25-meter-long vertiginous bridge suspended over a ravine — an adrenaline rush that’s manageable for most but still exhilarating.

From there, you’ll cross a Tibetan-style bridge, which adds a touch of novelty to the crossing, and continue through a series of obstacles that include monkey bridges and more horizontal paths. The approximately one-hour duration makes it a great choice for families or those who want a shorter adventure.

For more experienced climbers, the second section ramps up the difficulty. Here, you’ll tackle overhanging clamps that lead to a spectacular viewpoint 60 meters high, perfect for a well-earned rest and photo opportunity. The route then continues with a hinge pass, walking at 90 meters above the ground, and the inverted staircase, requiring a bit more nerve as you look down into the depths below.

The finale includes staples, a 60-meter suspension bridge, and a ramp, testing your balance and composure. The guides emphasize safety but also encourage you to challenge yourself, ensuring you get a sense of accomplishment at the end.
